The Frankfort roundabout. [volume] (Frankfort, Ky.) 1882-1908, 1887-06-04

Capt. Isaac T. West has just
made sale of a large tract of
land (26, SIS acres) to some CAPT
talists from Michigan. The land
is located in Jackson, Rockcastle
and Laurel counties, and is in the
heart of the mineral region-there
being rich veins of coal, iron, and
other valuable metals upon it, as
well as springs of petroleum oil,
and immense amounts Of timber.
The land lays, at the nearest point,
in five miles of a railroad, and the
furthest is only twenty-one
miles.
Is it not a shame that our own
capitalists should rush off to invest
their means in some supposed bo-
nanza, while clear-headed and
shrewd men from other States are
coming here to reap the real har-
vest right at our doors?
When will our Kentucky people
arouse to see their opportunities,
and take advantage of them?
This land was sold for not more
than one-fifth Of its real value.
Capt. West, we are glad to say,
has made a handsome profit out of
his trade, not having owned the
land more than few months, and
was far-seeing enough to retain a
considerable interest for himself.
The Captain made every endeavor
to get capitalists at home to invest
but failed.
Captain West still has large tracts
of land for sale. Why cannot our
people put their money where it
is sure to bring its reward?

EDITOR ST.. TAMMANY FARMER:
This week began with drizzly.
wet and disagreeable weather, but
has grown pretty lot in political
circles.
From news gathered around town
it seems that a dynamite bomb
must have exploded at the conven-
ton hs'd in Covinston last Satur-
day. to elect delegates tc the Baton
Rouge Convention. for they came
back raving. The Nichols faction
are working hard against our paro-
ckial officers. and they intend to
Tally" and fry "Cook." and A(uD-
maker will wrap up in a black
aheet our noble Boy Tom s. son; but
the McErery men are solid, and the
native cO!ored men in this ward are
solid. and can't be bought for grub
or red-eye.
II they have started o mosquito
in the eastward, i. e. "Cousin." we
have small bird. a "Wren." that
will swallow him mp. to say nothing
about the "Strain" in this town.
The schooner Deprs Bros. ar
rived this morning with a big
freight for its owners. and is now
unloading at the wharf.
One of our most popular mer.
chants. Mr.. Jacob Levy is shipping
this day. by the New Camelia,
ninety bales Of moss. seventy bum
dies Of sailed hides. and sundry
barrels of homes.
In a ramble around town I have
sscertained that we have thirty.one
flowing wells. and each of them has
at least 200 feet Of gutter. three feet
wide. and in these CATERS they
have planted water cress. which is
great luxury. as it grows summer
aud winter. I am informed by Mr..
Manaud that it yields a revenue OF
three dollars q week. shipping it to
the city.
Our !umbe- yard. T. verret.
agent for jays mill. is doing q very
good business. and I should think
that such q go-ahead man as Hei-
ser woul1 gst some one here to
start an opposition yard.
Christmas being near at hacd,
we hear that there are to he several
hops. and especially a big one at

The winters are generally iaiId, aud
snow rarely falls. Spriag opens

rhe heat Of summer is moderate,
and the unfailing breezes Of the
evening refresh man and beast after
the labors Of the day.
THE SOIL
is very productive, and admirably
adapted for raising sugar cane. cot
ton, oats, corn, rico, peanuts, etc.
The vine is indigenous, and yearly
bears large harvests Of delicious
fruit. Oranges. pears, peach. pllms,
ounces, figs and pecars thrive well.
CATTLE AND SHEEP
